Author Paul Trammell lives aboard his sailboat, and has found a profound sense of freedom and self-discovery.
When Paul is not steering his boat "Windflower" through tranquil waters or bracing against the unexpected, he's penning novels and self-publishing from his floating abode.
In this podcast, we talked about the world of self-publishing at sea, from leveraging friends' feedback to navigating the labyrinth of marketing and audiobook production.
We also discussed how digital platforms are reshaping the landscape for authors who dare to follow their dreams off the beaten path.
Paul is also the host of the podcast Offshore Sailing and Cruising with Paul Trammell.
Paul's journey is a testament to the undying spirit of adventure and the relentless pursuit of creativity, wherever you may find yourself in the world—or on the water.
